There is a fishing lake next to the campground. It is unsuitable for swimming. There is a swimming beach a 10 minute drive away. The sites have nice trees for shade, but they are very close together. The campground caters to fishermen, so there are a lot of fishing boats stored at the campground, making pulling into your site difficult. There are many permanent/seasonal sites. - User2011

A very low end campground. Very old and poorly maintained rigs occupy many seasonal sites. Horses and other farm animals roam the campground freely. The sites are dirt and some are level. One pull thru site is created by combining 2 sites. Not really big rig friendly. Very religious group runs the campground and a 4th of July park campground festival was really a small religious outdoor revival that the entire campground, which is very small is exposed to. The proprietors are very nice, but be aware the campground hopes to cater to the more religious types. - burmashave
May 2010 - $24.00
I rated this an 8 because; a) the friendliest campground I can remember in 25 yrs. b) although small with minimum activities, (weekend potlucks etc.), there is absolutely no highway noise. c) The rates were reasonable, wood bundle (delivered), a little larger than others and real hardwood, propane cost for trading a tank was a better price than I can get at my favorite spot at home. d) WI-FI was down the weekend I was there so can't say how good it is. New owners are motivated to improve and make your stay a pleasant one. Great quiet, economical, social friendly getaway. - tponeill

A very quiet park, probably about half seasonal sites. We enjoyed the walking paths. The owners were very pleasant and visible. There are not as many activities as other campgrounds. The athrooms were a little primitive, and could use an update. - WoodedOne

Great place to spend the night. Long concrete pull through sites. Good WiFi. Owners were very helpful. Better have a GPS to find this place, we never made so many turns down small country roads, but they were all pretty and well maintained. - Scott Hopkins
Jul 2010 - $36.00
We pulled in on a Friday night right before a storm. Owners were very helpful and ready for us which made it easy to setup before it rained. 50% seasonal sites. Nice folks everywhere. Some sites might be low during the rain, although the pull-throughs were high and dry, concrete. Wi-fi worked well. Nice, small store on site. WalMart not far away. We would return when in the area. - 5verTraveler
May 2009 - $38.00
This is a lovely campground and when we stayed there was low attendance due to the season so it was quiet. Lots of seasonal campers but it appears only newer campers are allowed and outside junk is kept to a minimum. Campground was very clean. Wireless was excellent as was the cable. Good water. Cement slaps for RV and patio. Managers very helpful and attentive to the campers requests. We would definitely stay here again. - leferen

Lovely wooded campground with a great historic (not rustic) feel. Very family oriented, very friendly to their local community (reunions and gatherings offered here). Could not have asked for friendlier hosts. They go above and beyond for the kids at the campground to have a good time. The children loved the flashlight lollipop hunt and the beach games! The campground creeks and lakes are all spring fed, and in constant movement from the originating spring. We had a good time exploring the property and appreciate all the work someone put in to build creeks, dams, and ponds throughout. The swimming "hole" is clean, only about 5 feet deep, has a small beach area and floats the kids can play on. The lake behind that is good for fishing. The kids had fun exploring the creeks and the little bridges built over them. There are permanent sites, mostly separate from visitors, and were all well kept and friendly. The camp store has all the necessities and goodies for the kids. It's also the nightly hang out for good but quiet get togethers of the campers. The pool was newly lined and clean, but chilly. Showers small but clean and the bathrooms were clean. Teepees are available for rent, but currently require some TLC. Give them time, I am sure they will get to it. Laundry available as well. No septic hook up, but a dump station on site. The town of Allen is worth exploring too with antique stores, Amish goods, and nice local people. We plan to stay here 2-3 days once a year now. - hoosiercamper
May 2010 - $30.00
Very nice primitive campground. I call it primitive because it is W/E only and just a few sites have pads. But that doesn't mean it is not a nice place to stay. About 25 of the sites were for long term campers but those were mostly separated from the short term sites. Lots of things to do in the campground. There are a number of ponds and streams, a natural swimming hole and a pool, nature trails, fishing pond, basketball & volleyball courts, 2 playgrounds and more. Most sites are shaded but there are a few non-shaded sites available. Site sizes range from only suitable for tents to any size rig. Site I stayed in was a back-in site that was over 60 ft. long by 30 ft. wide. You can even rent a tipi for the night if you want. No WiFi but Verizon cell and data service was good. Stayed here the middle of May and they were still in the process of cleaning the campground and opening the pool but not really unexpected since we've had a cool wet spring and the real camping season doesn't start until Memorial Day. I will come back and stay here again once summer is in full swing so I can enjoy all of the amenities. - HobbyTalk
Jul 2009 - $30.00
Very nice, Karl (owner) is an exceptional host. I got in late and he guided me to my spot. Fountain in the front pond is relaxing and we enjoyed walking along the streams. Must be doing something right, we camped mid-week, and it was half full. They offer a good mid-week special though which helps. They rent tee-pees, have several pavilions with barbecues and lighting. Clean working facilities. I would have rated it a 10 if they had Wi-Fi. Visiting again next week, it has become a family favorite, clean, quiet, organized, friendly, and a place to remember. - tponeill

Park was shady and level. WiFi worked only in select spots. Sites are close together, our neighbors sewer hookup was under our picnic table. This is an RV Parking lot with trees. They charged us $2 each for our two adult visitors who came by for dinner. The Fourth of July was Tuesday, and we left the Saturday before, but ended up paying holiday rates for Thursday and Friday night, an extra $2 a night. I guess it would be an OK place to stay if you are going to the races, but I don't see us ever staying there again. - troyster
May 2006 - $24.00
Crowded, sites very close together. Sewer access spots were put in with no thought as to how they would be used. Wi-Fi does not work. Guy in the office was a grump. Ok for a overnight. - karonb

Nice campground. Restrooms were remodeled this year-very clean. Hosts were very nice. Lots of shade available. If you have a Direct TV or DISH Network system, sites available with a direct view to the southwest. Approx. 15 miles west of Michigan International Speedway. Some of the sites are close to US HWY 12 - suggest you ask for sites farther into the campground. Very quiet at night. - dihtn

Pool is closed due to damage from extreme winter weather, and I could not receive a WiFi signal. Initial site assigned was much too small for our rig, so make sure to provide your rig length during the reservation process. Not many level sites in this park. It was quiet and relaxing, nice rolling terrain, lots of activities planned for kids. We probably will not return. - WoodedOne
Jun 2013 - $30.00
Loved it! Large park with nice trees and lots of green space. Pool and small lake for fishing with a swimming area roped off. Some small cabins for rent, small store, separate snack shack, and two separate play areas for kids. Friendly staff and owners. Will come back for sure. We have a 45' RV and had plenty of room. They are upgrading their sites and putting in more 50 amp service. - sdsnowbird

We chose this campground because it belongs to Passport America, so we only paid $13 per night plus tax. For us price is more important that amenities. But we liked this place because it was out of the way (about 5 miles from the interstate) and because it was so peaceful, though we did stay here during the week. Would have been nice to have a laundry. - lyndajw1

We were here on Coast to Coast. Getting in/out was a little tight with big rig but ok. Coming down 24 mile has a lot of branches hanging into the road but there was no traffic so just went down the middle of the road. Park has over 700 permanent (owned) lots and there are a hand full of CC sites scattered around. Sites are very large, grass and 30 amp. Not all have sewer. Only one pull-thru. Friendly people. Nice pool and other amenities. Nicely kept up park with the only complaint being incredible amount of dust from the gravel road. They are spraying the roads to hold down dust but had not gotten to our road yet. We would stay here again. - cwier

This campground is beautiful with lots of amenities. There is a beautiful clubhouse and a lovely pool. They have planned activities. It is a family campground with children riding bikes, people walking and playing mini golf. The sites are nice. The campground has a security gate entrance. The grounds are well maintained and has good water pressure. We camped here as a coast to coast member. I don't know what the regular rates per night are. - goldieoldie
Aug 2008 - $10.00
We camped here as Coast to Coast. There are a limited number of C to C sites available. This is because it is an ownership park. Since it is an ownership park the sites are quite large and extremely well maintained. The staff here could not be more helpful or friendly. We were treated like owners and escorted to our site. The folks living here have been pleasant and about as nice as we have ever seen. The grounds are immaculate and the facilities first rate. With all of that said you ARE out in the country and will have to drive about 20 miles to get to Big City shopping. A Wal Mart is about 11 miles away. The number of children here is just about right for a quiet and serene stay. In the future this will be at the top of our list. - capt-tom

This research paper examines the job market and salaries for mass media graduates.
Research indicates that the number of traditional print journalism jobs and their salaries will continue to decline. Broadcast journalism jobs are rebounding, though the pay is stagnant. The number of advertising, marketing and PR jobs, as well as their salaries, are expected to increase in years to come. The greatest employment potential exists on the Internet, which is already a dominant employer.

Three Virginia Women's Soccer Players Earn All-Atlantic Coast Conference Honors
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - Three members of the University of Virginia women's soccer team have been named to the 1997 All-Atlantic Coast Conference first team. Sophomores Angela Hucles (Virginia Beach, Va.) and Megan Boehm (Columbia, Md.), and junior Karem Esteva (Westport, Conn.) were all selected to the all-conference squad. Hucles and Boehm are both first team All-ACC selections for the second straight season, while Esteva previously earned second team All-ACC honors in both 1995 and 1996.
Hucles, a 5-7 forward, is the leading scorer for the Cavaliers this season with 35 points on 15 goals and five assists. Her 35 points this year are the second highest single-season total in school history, behind only Andrea Rubio's 36 points in 1990. Hucles also ranks second on the single season list for goals scored with 15, behind only her own total of 17 last year. On the UVa career lists, Hucles currently stands seventh in points with 69, while ranking fifth in both goals (32) and game-winning goals (nine).
Boehm, a 5-11 goalkeeper, has played 15 games in goal for Virginia this season and has a 1.05 goals against average with 31 saves. She has two solo shutouts on the year, including one on the road against third-ranked Portland. Boehm, who ranks fifth all-time at UVa in career saves with 70, had a career-high eight saves at Clemson earlier this year.
Esteva, a 5-3 defender, has started every game of the season for the Cavaliers at sweeper. She has played 1,606 minutes on the year, more than any other player on the squad. Esteva has played the entire game in 16 of Virginia's 18 contests this season, while leading the UVa defense to a team goals against average of 1.21 on the year. During her career, Esteva has started all 60 of the Cavaliers' games.
The Cavaliers will be back in action tomorrow, Nov. 6, when they will face Clemson in the first round of the ACC Tournament. The game is set to begin at 3:00 p.m. at Spry Stadium in Winston-Salem, N.C.

The grey pouf shown online looks as if the leather and stitching are very close to the same color in a nice medium grey. It arrived actually a light pale grey leather with darker stitching, and mine has an ink pen mark on it that extends about 2-3 inches and also two small cuts on the bottom. The cuts don't go through the leather, but for the amount of money, I expected that the product would not arrive in this condition. Sadly, I bought this for a home I live in only very part time at the moment as I work outside the country and did not have time to return it before I had to leave the country again since it arrived the day I was leaving. It does have a slight odor to it, but I think that's the case with leather products anyway, and I'm hoping by the time I get back to my home, the odor will have dissipated at least somewhat, if not fully. Although I don't LOVE the color, it is quite comfortable to prop your feet up on and is a good height for my coffee table in case I need extra seating for game nights.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The grey pouf was much lighter than shown online.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Seems good so far.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Accurate description
I ordered the Teal, the box says Turquoise. No big deal except that when I opened the box I have a turquoise pouf with teal stitching and not the teal pouf with teal stitching that I was expecting. The quality seems okay, the smell that other have commented on is there. I will not be keeping it long enough to see if it dissipates. I'm use to having quick shipments from Overstock this one took a full two weeks and the tracking information was unavailable due to the drop shipment style they use. I will try ordering another one in a different color. Some people may like the contrast of the stitching but to me it looks cheap and is opposite of the style I was going for. I had expected a deep saturated color with matching stitching Disappointing purchase but for the most part I've had great luck with the O so I'll try again.
Overall, very pleased with the product. It was slightly different from the picture but as it was still a neutral brown shade, it works for me. I am happy with the quality of the leather and the foam inside. So glad I purchased a stuffed ottoman, as opposed to using old clothes. The foam is sturdy but also has a nice degree of give.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Fair. I ordered the Brown because Dark Brown wasn't available. The Brown was a nice camel color. The stiching was more of a cream color as opposed to the brown stitching shown in the picture. But it stll looks nice.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. The leather has been heavily conditioned, and left a little oily residue inside the box. But it looks lovely and high quality. The foam inside is sturdy which is what I wanted.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? As mentioned above, the color was just slightly different as was the stitching. But its still a very neutral brown, so I like it.
I think that this is a very classy ottoman, just the right height,I'm thinking on buying the pink one as well.make no mistake thou, it does have a terrible smell, I'm sure it will go away, I'll live with it.my dogs love it as well!!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? It is white with tan stitching , and it does smell.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. It's a beauty, perfect with my cream leather 13 foot sofa with a 6 foot round.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? I didn't see tan stitching on the add, it was white in the picture.
I found this product for a few dollars less on gilt.com, but their expected shipping date was 3 weeks longer that what overstock.com predicted. I ordered the orange to add an accent some cooler colors in my living room. This will be used as an additional seat while entertaining, and as a foot stool for relaxing! I just wish it didn't have a zipper on the bottom. I'm somewhat concerned that it will scratch my wood floors if we're not careful. A side zip would be better.
The Overstock description indicated the material was leather, but the box was labeled "Synthetic Leather" and "Faux Leather." I ordered the bronze. Perhaps other colors are genuine leather (i can't say), but I wanted the real thing, not the synthetic version. I'm returning it.
My new favorite piece of furniture! The pouf is very well made. I might order another. The stuffing is nice and firm and I can see if lasting beyond just a few years. Beautiful to look and comfortable to relax on.
Great for foot rest or sitting. Not too heavy for moving around too. Adds a nice bright touch to the room, well made also.
I have had this poof for well over a year's time and it is still in great shape. I love that I can move it easily from room to room
This works really well as it doesn't collapse under the weight of an adult sitting on it. Finish has been holding up for over 9 months with no issues. Great as a seat or ottoman.
Don't get me wrong, I like this pouf BUT I bought the white one in hopes that the stitching would also be white, when I got it the stitching is a beige color, which doesn't really match my daughters nursery. The star embroidery on the top is different than what is pictured, it comes with a cheaper looking star, not the pretty one pictured. Lastly, the strips of white leather are all a little different in color, some look a little dirty but I think that's how they all would come since they are handmade, the color difference isn't enough to make me return and I know it will probably get dirty with time....
This pouf is a useful accent piece in my bedroom. The size is perfect for the room and works well as an ottoman for the chair. The leather is good quality and the color accurate.
I bought this pouf in pink to use as an ottoman for my infant daughter's nursery. We wanted something stylish beyond the typical nursery furniture and this is awesome, plus it will be suitable as she grows. I expect her to take this to college with her! It's a great height and size, and the color really pops. I love it!
The silver on the pouf was faded out in spots. It looked worn.. Was not as tall as expected for use with chair. I would only recommend this if one was absolutely sure of style
Yellow is nice and bright, but not tacky. It's well made and super sturdy. Great piece !
Perfect addition to our nursery. Great quality.
Great quality and beautiful coloring of the "brown" pouf. Great seating for kids in front of the TV.
I ordered the "brown" pouf for my nursery and it came in a super cute darkish tan color and it is adorable! It looks like it came straight from a my nursery Pinterest board. It's soft yet sturdy and the perfect height for my glider.
It's an ok product, but certainly doesn't justify the price charged for it.
I really like this pouf. I was concerned the white stitching on black might be an issue but it's not. It's really pretty.

the birth of the child when 1) a paternity affidavit was properly executed and fathers name is on birth certificate, 2) there were no claims of fraud or duress by either parent rather both parents acknowledged the man is the father 3) when there is no request and/or court order for setting the affidavit aside?
Family Law Attorney
Family Law is one of the areas that varies greatly from State to State. You should contact an attorney licensed to practice in Indiana and explain the situation. I get the sense there is more to this story than what you are indicating here.
Family Law Attorney
A paternity affidavit and name on the birth certificate establishes paternity without the need for further DNA testing; however, it does not adjudicate rights such as custody and parenting time to the father and child support for the custodian. A court adjudication confers on the named father the rights and obligations of paternity and is the basis for establishing a child support order.

For Huracán, good things comes in threes: three driving modes, three gyroscopes and three accelerometers. Can all this technology combine with a 610 horsepower V10 engine to help Huracán surpass its predecessor, Lamborghini's best-selling Gallardo? Watch now to find out.

If you're into cars and are familiar with this little thing called the Internet, you've no doubt seen the new Lamborghini Huracán by now. And while it might seem redundant to talk about the hot new Lambo again, the stunning coupe finally, officially makes its public debut here at the Geneva Motor Show. In other words, it's an excuse for us to bring you yet another set of photos, ripe for the droolin'.

The Lamborghini Huracán might be one of the most anticipated cars to come out of Sant'Agata since the launch of its predecessor, the Gallardo. While we're stuck waiting to drive the V10-powered, all-wheel-drive Huracán, we can at least play around with the all-new configurator, which has just gone live.

As one of the most prestigious sports car makers on the planet, Lamborghini doesn't have much of a need for commercials - the German-owned, Italian brand's cars speak for themselves. It strikes as rather odd, then, that Lambo's new Huracán was spotted zipping around a downtown area with a full camera crew in tow.

Lamborghini just revealed all the juicy details about its 2015 Huracán this morning, but apparently Autobild was on hand for a photo shoot of the car, and shot this quick video of the new Lambo starting up. It's not a rev-happy video, but we're still happy a camera was on hand to capture the raucous exhaust note as the 610-horsepower V10 roared to life.

All aboard the Leak Train! While we know that all the official images and details are coming soon, the Lamborghini Huracan (if that is its real name...) is showing up all over the internet (Automobile Magazine Hong Kong's Facebook page, for instance) in a dashing yellow paint scheme. While we're not presently able to confirm or deny the accuracy of these seven leaked images, when compared to the spy shots we've already seen, we can say they look convincingly real.

Lamborghini is expected to drop the sheet on its replacement for the Gallardo later this month (think of it as an automotive Festivus gift), which means that speculation on the new supercar's looks and performance is reaching a fever pitch. While the discussion centers on powertrains, though, we're overlooking something equally important - the car's name.

National Terrorism Alert System replaces former color-coded alerts
The Homeland Security Department is replacing its color-coded alert system with the new National Terrorism Advisory System that will distribute alerts not only through traditional law enforcement and news media channels but also through social media.
As part of that new distribution system, DHS set up a new Twitter account Jan. 27 to carry the new alerts. The department's new @NTASAlerts account on Twitter had sent no tweets yet and listed 299 subscribers earlier today. The department also plans to publicize the alerts on the DHS Facebook page and on a new dedicated DHS Web page for alerts.
DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano, who announced the change Jan. 27, said the new two-tiered alert system will distribute targeted alerts about specific or credible terrorist threats. Depending on the nature of the threat, the alerts may be distributed to the public at large or they may be distributed in a limited fashion to the potentially targeted individuals, she said.
The threats will be labeled "imminent" or "elevated." Each alert will summarize the potential threat, describe the measures officials are taking and recommend steps for people to take.
The new system will replace the color-coded system developed by former Secretary Tom Ridge in 2002 shortly after the 2001 terrorist attacks. In that system, red, orange, yellow and green signaled current threat conditions nationally or for airports. Napolitano said the former system often was unspecific and lacked practical information.
"In its place, we will implement a new system that is built on a clear and simple premise: When a threat develops that could impact you, the public – we will tell you," Napolitano said in her announcement. "We will provide whatever information we can so you know how to protect yourselves, your families and your communities."
A 90-day trial implementation period for the new system began Jan. 27. The old color-coded system will remain in effect during the transition.
The new terror alert system was developed by a bipartisan task force led by Fran Townsend, former assistant to President George W. Bush for Homeland Security, and Judge William Webster, former director of the FBI and CIA. The task force also included law enforcement officials and former mayors and governors.

Also, is there another way, different from maven plugin or maven performance test, to run a broker from the source. Because, maven plugin JMX is off, and even though i follow the instructions, i still have this message telling 'maven plugin performance' or something like that.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Center
Diagnosing Juvenile Arthritis
In this article
What is juvenile arthritis?
Juvenile arthritis is a disease in which there is inflammation (swelling) of the synovium in children aged 16 or younger. The synovium is the tissue that lines the inside of joints.
Juvenile arthritis is an autoimmune disease. That means the immune system, which normally protects the body from foreign substances, attacks the body instead. The disease is also idiopathic, which means that no exact cause is known. Researchers believe juvenile arthritis may be related to genetics, certain infections, and environmental triggers.
Recommended Related to Rheumatoid Arthritis
Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is a childhood disease that affects the joints. (It's also called juvenile idiopathic arthritis, or JIA). It has several different types. "Systemic-onset juvenile rheumatoid arthritis" is the rarest form, accounting for just 10%-20% of all JRA cases. The word "systemic" means that it affects the entire body. The condition causes high, spiking fevers, rash, and joint aches. It usually starts when a child is between 5 and 10 years old. It affects boys and girls...
Read the Systemic-Onset JRA article > >
What are the different types of juvenile arthritis?
There are five types of juvenile arthritis:
- Systemic arthritis, also called Still's disease, can affect the entire body or involve many systems of the body. Systemic juvenile arthritis usually causes high fever and a rash. The rash is usually on the trunk, arms, and legs. Systemic juvenile arthritis can also affect internal organs, such as the heart, liver, spleen, and lymph nodes, but usually not the eyes. Boys and girls are equally affected.
- Oligoarthritis, also called pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, affects fewer than five joints in the first six months that the child has the disease. The joints most commonly affected are the knee, ankle, and wrist. Oligoarthritis can affect the eye, most often the iris. This is known as uveitis, iridocyclitis, or iritis. This type of arthritis is more common in girls than in boys, and many children will outgrow this disease by the time they become adults.
- Polyarthritis, also called polyarticular arthritis, involves five or more joints in the first six months of the disease -- often the same joints on each side of the body. This type of arthritis can affect the joints in the jaw and neck as well as those in the hands and feet. This type also is also more common in girls than in boys and more closely resembles the adult form.
- Psoriatic arthritis affects children who have both arthritis and the skin disorder psoriasis. The child might get either the psoriasis or the arthritis years before developing the other part of the disease. Children with this type of arthritis often have pitted fingernails.
- Enthesitis-related arthritis is a type of arthritis that often afflicts the spine, hips, eyes, and entheses (the places where tendons attach to bones). This type of arthritis occurs mainly in boys older than 8 years of age. There is often a family history of arthritis of the back (called ankylosing spondylitis) among the child's male relatives.

A suicide bomber, a mass murderer, a Taliban supporter, and a Hamas-related spokesman.
Source: Fort Pierce Islamic Center's Terror-Related Past and Present | Frontpage Mag
Syed Shafeeq Ur Rahman, imam of the Islamic Center of Fort Pierce (ICFP), claims that his mosque – the same mosque where Orlando terrorist shooter Omar Mateen regularly prayed at – condemns radical Islam. But if that is so, then why, following the shooting, would the mosque retain a spokesman who is a leader from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a group that has numerous associations with the terrorist organization Hamas?
The Islamic Center of Fort Pierce or Masjid Subul-as-Salam was incorporated in September 2003. Its founder was Shafeeq Rahman. Today, Rahman is the mosque's imam and president. The mosque is a converted church, located at 1104 West Midway Road and owned by Azaan, Inc., a Florida business run by the mosque's Secretary and Treasurer, Imtiaz Jehan Khan.
Weeks ago, the mosque made the news, following the murders of 49 innocent people at Orlando's Pulse LGBT nightclub by one of the mosque's congregants. This had been the second large scale terrorist attack linked to the mosque in as many years.
The first was a suicide attack carried out in Syria by then 22-year-old Palestinian-American Moner Mohammad Abu-Salha, aka Abu Hurayra al-Amriki. Abu-Salha was a follower of deceased Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, an al-Qaeda leader who died via a US drone strike in September 2011. Abu-Salha had flown from the US to Turkey and made his way over the border into Syria, soon to join up with al-Qaeda affiliate al-Nusra Front.
In May 2014, Abu-Salha, as a member of al-Nusra, drove a massive truck bomb into a restaurant in Jabal al-Arbaeen filled with Syrian government soldiers. This was said to be the first suicide bombing performed by an American within Syria.
The second attack associated with ICFP took place on June 12th, when Omar Mir Seddique Mateen, also an admirer of al-Awlaki, entered the Pulse in Orlando and shot and killed 49 people and injured 53 more. During the attack, Mateen placed a call to 911 to claim responsibility for the attack and pledge his allegiance to the leader of ISIS. He stated, "I pledge… allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State." He, as well, expressed his solidarity with those who carried out the April 2013 Boston Marathon bombing and Abu-Salha, who perpetrated the Syria suicide attack.
Both Abu-Salha and Mateen were acquaintances and members of the Fort Pierce mosque. Reports state that the two were in regular communication with one another. Although the imam Shafeeq Rahman has claimed that Mateen hardly ever came to the mosque's Friday services, Mateen was a regular attendee on Fridays. Indeed, Mateen was at the mosque with his father only two nights prior to the shooting attack. Continue reading

RIP PlayStation Home, 2008-2015
PlayStation Home, one of the most ambitious (and weirdest) things Sony has ever done with video games, closes down today. It will not be missed, but it should at least be remembered.
PlayStation Home, one of the most ambitious (and weirdest) things Sony has ever done with video games, closes down today. It will not be missed, but it should at least be remembered.
At 4:50pm EST today, PlayStation Home users can tune in to watch NASA's Discovery's final blast-off from the Kennedy Space Center to the ISS, which will actually be Home's first-ever live-stream of an event.
A 43-year-old mother of three is currently wanted by the police in Oklahoma City for seducing a 14-year-old kid on PlayStation Home. Her avatar must've been really something.
This September, the 1.3 version of PS Home will roll out to PS3 users. The big upgrade? You'll be able to launch any game straight from Home.
OK, now we get it, Sony. The free Batcave included with Batman: Arkham Asylum will make the digital dryhumping fest infinitely more tolerable...unless Val Kilmer and George Clooney show up. [joystiq]
Remember the world before the PlayStation Home open beta launched? You may, because it looked a lot like the world after PlayStation Home launched. Still, Sony has some numbers they'd like to share with you:
While our PSP wish list has yet to be fulfilled, one game called The Idol Master SP (PSP) will offer PSP users a new level of PS Home integration.
Like Gmail, there's a good chance that Sony's weak virtual life simulator PlayStation Home will remain in beta indefinitely, says Home director Jack Buser in this week's Kotaku podcast. Anyone really surprised by that? [Kotaku]
After cutting down the voice chat feature in PlayStation Home, Sony PlayStation Network's Abigail Murphy says that their new 1.05 update brings the feature back but limiting it to users' personal spaces and clubhouses:
Not one to be outdone by the likes of PlayStation Home, World of Warcraft, or even that cesspool of flying dildos Second Life, the city of Decatur, Georgia might be going virtual.
Attack of the Show is planning a little gathering tonight in PlayStation Home, encouraging one and all to join them in 7PM EST to dance the robot. Will the servers hold?
It's technically an "Open Beta," but PlayStation Home features major security vulnerabilities that hackers have already exploited. The first, seen here in blurry video, allows you to play, say, Pineapple Express on Home screens.
Here's some uplifting video from the trainwreck PlayStation Home. In it, we see two female avatars being surrounded by male avatars doing little dances. Apparently this is happening all over the service. A lot.
The PlayStation Home Open Beta (77MB) can now be downloaded onto your PS3 from the XMB (it's not a firmware update). Enjoy your
third life.
We knew it was on the way, but last we'd heard, PlayStation Home was coming December 17th. Wrong! PS Home will actually launch worldwide tomorrow.
According to Times Online, the PlayStation Home open beta will hit on December 17th. From an article published yesterday:

I cannot comprehend the thought process of a human being who created this. The word "abysmal" is a gross understatement, it might even be a gratutious one. This conglomerate of catastrophic failure cannot be expressed through conventional means of english.
I.. no, I just cannot understand how it is possible something can be as, least to say; bad, as this. The very constraints of our universe and all it's laws are broken through the sheer suck-age of this project.
I can see however through the notions of this "art" that you are conveying a sense of low-self esteem. Your pride justifies that your "return" is worthy of a project. Unfortunately it is a grievous failure in terms of worthiness. Not only does your existence contradict Darwinism, this project contradicts... well... as I said nothing can describe it.
All in all, this is the pinnacle of failure, the apex of suck, the epitome of bad, the embodiment of what "not" a piece of flash should be.
just kidding it was funny.btw what's the song playing?

Dev Update!April 25, 2013|
Time flies when you're working hard on something and, oh man, have we been working hard lately. It's time for a first proper dev update for Legend of Grimrock 2!
The codebase has been in quite a bad shape after working so furiously on the first game. So I've been doing a lot of code refactoring which is a bit unthankful work because I'm rewriting a lot code and on the surface nothing seem to be changing. But still it's very important and will speed up development in the future tremendously. Almost everything is now component based (except for the Party class which is a bugger to refactor because it's so tightly connected to many places). Also I have rewritten the save game system, so that it's easier to add new components that store their state automatically in save games.
I've also worked on the AI and as a result some critters are now noticeably harder to deal with. A completely new AI behavior has also been added. You can tell the difference immediately when this new behavior is activated but I don't want to spoil the fun by revealing all the secrets yet!
The Dungeon Editor has also seen some changes. The inspector is now tree-based and shows the components of the selected entity. The "Paint Wall" tool has been extended quite a bit. It is now possible to paint different types of walls and floors in the same level. Shift-clicking on the map flood fills large areas. The editor also has a zoom feature, so tightly packed levels are easier to deal with.
Meanwhile Antti has been busy designing the levels. We have now about 5-6 playable levels in pre-alpha stage depending on how you count them. The levels have puzzles in them but monsters and extra polish will be added later. Antti has also been prototyping on a cool new puzzle mechanic which will eventually help extend our repertoire of tricky and brainteasing puzzles.
Juho and Olli have been modeling and animating new monsters and we have now eight new nasty critters, including two new spellcasters in development. We are trying to get a wider variety of monsters with different abilities in the game this time. If time permits we would like to implement unique AI behavior for most of them.
Jyri has been working on a new interior wallset and dungeon props. Jyri has also helped Juho and Olli by creating the very first monster that you will encounter in LoG2! Jyri reports that the monster has 3192 polygons, uses three textures, has 17 deformers and fits approximately inside a 3×3 meter cubic block. Can you guess what it is?
So all in all, I'd say we are progressing at a good pace. But there's still a lot of work left, so better get back to banging the keyboard!
22 Responses to "Dev Update!"
This sounds great, and with the screenshot released earlier, it's shaping up to be a worthy sequel to my personal 2012 GOTY.
One question though, will the game have NPCs? Maybe even voiced? Fixed-location side-quest NPCs, shopkeepers, etc. would be a great way to breathe a lot of life into the game and its world. Voice acting can often be the most costly part of the development process, but it doesn't have to be. I'm sure a lot of fans of the game have terrific voices that would love to do it even for free, just to be able to say that they were part of a great game that sold MILYANS and MILYANS of units. (I'm one of those people, hint hint)
At any rate, refactoring and optimizing code is as you say, unthankful work, but it pays off. By having a faster, more intuitive engine, you can reach more users with a wider range of hardware, which equals to more sales.
Thanks for your continuing hard work on this great franchise.
Thanks for the feedback! LoG2 will be a tightly focused dungeon & outdoor crawler. Atmosphere, sneaky monsters and tricky puzzles are still at the core of the game. Side-quest NPCs, towns and shopkeepers do not fit into the overall picture that well… but it doesn't mean that LoG2 will be devoid of personality… am I cryptic enough?
That's excellent news – getting really excited.
I got Legend of Grimrock with an Humble Indie Bundle, but because the icon had "cute" looking characters, it sat on my harddrive for a few months until one day in November I thought "Might as well see what this is."
When I saw the title screen my heart skipped a beat and I thought – "Noooo way. This isn't going to be like Eye of the Beholder…"
I scarcely did anything other than play Legend of Grimrock for the next few months, and upon completion – getting into the level editing.
Which raises a question:
Will dungeons I'm working on, be portable to the new level editor?
Hi there, we are extending the capabilities of the engine quite a bit, so it's unlikely that the levels would work straight out of the box in LoG2 editor. However, I'm sure that dungeon layouts, puzzles, items, etc. should be possible port over with a little work.
Don't tell i'ts a bloody Dragon….. are you insane????
Oh shit, our secret plan has been leaked!
Is there going to be any revision to the magic system?
I rolled two mages for my party and it was really disappointing. The same spells – in 4 different colours! Shall I fire the blue missile or the red missile? Which do you think goes best with my shoes? And you don't even know that the spells are all going to be the same so it's a double whammy of disappointment.
Everything else was great. But yeah, not so much the magic. No rolling two mages for me ever again.
New spells are definitely planned We already have a long list of ideas for new spells but haven't had time to start implementing them yet.
That's some great news, we can't wait to see more…
As for the new AI, does it per chance have something to do with an annoying little laughing creature with blue arms and green legs?
I'm gonna go with gelatinous cube.
Man, how I wish I could see the source code! I love refactoring.
Thanks for the update!
I know you're a small studio and have a limited budget but do you guys have any plans to invest a little more into writing this time around? The story wasn't very compelling and the the narration was a bit clunky in LoG1 if I'm completely honest
The studio is small, but the budget is not so small and I wish to be larger, so the studio can be larger too.
"If time permits we would like to implement unique AI behavior for most of them."
Time HAS to permit, it just has to
Looking forward to other LoG2 updates
Very nice.
I hope the monsters will be a bit tougher this time around. In the last game, you totally nailed the atmosphere, exploration and puzzles, but the combat and RPG elements left something to be desired.
Hope you polish them up a bit more.
I am dying to see a snowy outdoor environment. I think it would fit perfectly to emerge at a later point after traversing the dungeon and be higher up in the mountains.
Also — any chance of rain/snow/weather effects? Will the outdoor areas have a day/night cycle?
Hi. Loved the 1st game. Can't wait to play the 2nd. One question, will the monsters have skin damage? What I mean is, will the skin of a monster change to a bruised skin when the monster looses 50% health and an even more bruised and cut skin when he his almost dead?
Also, will monsters gain a new AI behaviour for when they are close to dying, something like a rage behaviour were they move faster and deal more damage?
Anyway, keep doing great games!
I'd love to see some more screenies!
